Do people settle on their final 6 quite early in the game and work on building them up for the rest of the game or do most experiment until quite late in the game?

 

I'm close to the third gym and wondering if I should start committing on my 6.

I was up in the air over my team all the way until the 7th and 8th badges. Still not thrilled with how I expect they'll fare in non-AI battles, but they've all been absolute troopers so far.

 

Current Story Completion Team:

 

Gengar

Charizard

Dedenne

Mawile

Greninja

Snorlax

 

I feel it's a good mix of old and new. I desperately wanted to use Aegislash at the end, but he was clashing too much with the all the other types in the party. There are a few others I'd like to work in somewhere as well - definitely dig the little confused bear/rabbit thing I bumped into on the way to Victory Road.

 

Once I beat the game I'm gonna start looking into completing the Dex. Last time I did was in Red/Blue. If I'm still interested after then (I probably won't be), I'll try forming a couple of decent strategic teams and take 'em online for a play.

 

This game has reignited my love for a franchise I'd long thought I was done with. Mad props to them for finally pushing the series forward in a big way.

ReZ's Safari also has Rufflet, weirdly though he wasn't online on my friend list when I encountered it. Maybe they just need to have cleared the elite 4 to unlock the third safari pokemon.

 

I might be wrong, but as I understand it, once your friend beats the E4 that unlocks the third Pokemon, while being online at the same time with them unlocks Pokemon with their Hidden Ability and a greater chance of getting a shiny.

I'm close to the third gym and wondering if I should start committing on my 6.

 

I've got my team of 6 sorted, i'm closing in on the 3rd gym now. This could change later on, but this is how it stands now

 

1. Charizard (Fire)

2. Greninja (Water)

3. Alakasam (Psy)

4. Lucario (Fighting)

5. Nidoking (Poison)

6. Tyrunt (Rock)

 

Nice mix of Pokemon generations and types, i try to have 2 current gen 'mon in my team in any game, one of them is the starter and another is a random type. In this case, it's the Fossel Pokemon i was after.

 

And if anyone is interested, i'm breeding Nidoran's (Female and Male, bloody hard to find them in the wild) and Pichu's.

 

Did 2 Wonder trades today, traded a spare Nidoran i had and got a Snorlax back. Traded another random 'mon and got a female Pikachu in return. Not a bad trade i don't think.

Anyone else have Honedge (Steel/ghost: the one that looks like a sword)? Was thinking about trying to find one for my 6

 

I have one in the box somewhere, caught 2 a while ago. It's yours if you want it.

 

I do plan on levelling up and filling the dex before doing the Elite 4, so catching as many 'Mon now before doing a grind to fill up.

You can find it in the tall grass surrounding that mansion just by the daycare area.

 

Awesome, awesome new Pokemon.

That'd be great thanks so much! I've added your 3DS code, let me know when you'll be playing/online?
